Either of the following:

```
(define-key key-translation-map (kbd "<s-mouse-1>") (kbd "<mouse-2>"))
```

or

```
(define-key function-key-map (kbd "<s-mouse-1>") (kbd "<mouse-2>"))
```

exhibit the same behavior:

1. `C-u C-h c s-mouse-1` ==>
```
   <mouse-2> (translated from <s-down-mouse-1> <s-mouse-1>) at that spot
   runs the command mouse-yank-primary
```

2. Actually clicking s-mouse-1:
```
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "mouse-yank-primary must be bound to an event with ...")
  call-interactively(mouse-yank-primary nil nil)
  command-execute(mouse-yank-primary)
```
